I’d originally planned on doing 4 individual galleries using the brilliant new WordPress Media Manager for this week’s Photo Challenge to represent the changing seasons of winter, spring summer & autumn showing all floras in my own garden, as I’ve taken quite a few images over the last 12 months…so the choice was endless. Sorry to say, but, this idea was quickly dropped as the drive to work yesterday offered me a true fragment in time to capture the beauty of a changing season in my home County of Yorkshire with a stunning winter sunrise over a freshly ploughed farmer’s field and a flock of birds preparing for migration on what was a very chilly and frosty December morning.

Really nice pictures, Carl!! Love the dramatic sky! 🙂
Thanks…made me late for work making the detour to take those shots 🙂
What a great way to start your day with such beauty! Stunning pictures as always!
Thank you so much, I was late for work after taking them 😦
Wow!! So glad you took this detour on the way to work! (worth being late!) ~ Kat
Totally agree Kat, some of natures visual gifts are worth being late to work for 🙂
Loved the frozen field. Looks like tiny silver metal lace left on the ground.
Thanks Bill, I was taking a pic of the sunrise when l Iooked down and noticed it. Sadly the pic is not as sharp as I’d have liked.
Great shots … my pick is the ice crystals – ice crystals has always fascinated me since I was a child. That top photo is amazing too .. can feel the chill.
Thanks Viveka, the ice crystal pic is proving a popular choice 🙂
I think we all have a soft spot for fragile beauty. *smile

Thanks, I froze my butt off taking them, as I was dressing only in my work attire. 🙂
